Cask at The Cluny. Slightly hazy yellow with a thin white head. Aromas of hay and lemony citrus. Taste is light sweet, but flat and one-dimensional, finishes thin. OK.

500ml bottle. Clear golden colour with small to average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity aroma with a strawberry touch, malty basis with a touch of biscuit. Taste is minimally sweet pale malty, hints of biscuit, a fruity touch of unripe strawberry and gooseberry, cautious hints of hay and chalk aggregate to a bitter impression.

Cask at The Cluny, Newcastle on 27 July 2013. Poured a clear golden with a thin white head, some lacing. Ripe fruit aroma with hints grass and some sweet toffee notes. Initial burst of dry floral hops replaced by some sweet malty notes. Palate kind of falls away to nothingness.

Cask at Lyric, soho. It pours clear golden with a small white head. The nose is grainy, hay, light barnyard, zesty, pear, melon, white grape and light toast. The taste is pleasantly bitter, straw, hay, grainy, pithy lemon, soft fruits, grapefruit and pepper with a dry, lingering bitter finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A quaffable hoppy golden.

Weak pale yellow appearance with a thin white head. Not weak in character, has a great body and a healthy blonde bitterness to it.
